Hello,

I have a virus that is preventing me from accessing the internet. One minute it was working and then suddenly it stopped. The laptop detects there is a network connection, but when I try to browse the internet it just won't display the page.

Thanks for all your help in advance.

Hello Absolute,

If you boot in safemode with networking, how is your internet connection then?

Dear Absolute,

In that case I don't think it's a virus. I suggest that you contact your Internet service provider to help you reconfigure your IE7, after which, for better performance, I suggest you update to IE8.

Good luck
